Nothing but killing and sex, some between daughters and their fathers, all in the name or order from their god!

The way you put it... it sounds like Las Vegas...

And seriously, a book of stories that people choose to believe or not, it's not literature. I don't consider a manual any sort of literature. I don't consider a newspaper any kind of literature. Literature is a form of art, and it doesn't tell us how to behave or any moral reasons to live life in a certain way. The bible is not literature, it's a religious tool.

I'm not saying whether it's right or wrong, just that it shouldn't be confused with "just another book".

Just someone who thinks and doesn't just accept the so called "official" beliefs and stories. It was VERY difficult to analyse that crap but I did to gain knowledge, which is what really makes us great!

It is unfortunate that the majority of the people in the U.S.A. allow themselves to either believe the crap the government tells them or allow themselves to be dragged through it. It is VERY difficult but the majority of the people need to rise up together and remove the priks that keep them in misery. Maybe then there will not be so many people earning $4.50 or there abouts an hour and living in slums!

The rest of the differences can be worked out later but not while oppression exists.

On the money! That's what I found a few years ago. The word Krishna is Christ in another language (Krishna was wriiten about much earlier also). It all reverts back to the ancient SUN RELIGIONS. The Sun and the 12 star constellations; the zodiac, Jesus and the 12 apostles, most religions have a main character and 12 somethings
